So what could get worse from yesterday after my visit to the clinic? Or rather, after my previous post?

I went to take a nap, and when I woke up, the sore throat is miraculously gone(or rather, my throat is all numb from the lozenges, but I can feel the throat is swollen).

But my nose was caked with dried goo.

My sore throat made me drool all over the pillow and bed.

And then, I was shivering and feeling extremely unwell.

How suey you tell me? After my trip to the doctor’s, I got fever. And my sniff sniff goo became green, and thick, and I was breathing like those perverts over the phone. And! I started coughing badly.

I felt warm, I was delirious, and I couldn’t find fever medication.

So, for the whole of yesterday, I saw the temperature shot up to almost 39, and then back to 38.5 and there about.

I couldn’t sleep even though I took 2 medications that were supposed to make me drowsy.

I was threatened with a cold bath, and I refused to go through that agony. I settled for the ice pack instead.

I woke up every hour in the night, to either wrap tissue dumplings, or to check my temperature cos I could feel the heat from my duvet.

It has been 18 hours since my fever, and I am still having a fever at 38.3, as of now. And I think my body has grown used to the heat, and besides being a little shiverish and feeling weak, I thought I was good enough to head back to work.

I don’t remember the last time I had such an uncomfy fever, cos normally, they go away as fast as they came.

This one, I tell you, made me so delirious that I was mumbling gibberish at one point last night.

And because it happened after my trip to the doctor, I will need to head back to get another day of MC off. Grr….

And yesterday he only gave me lozenges, 6 tablets for runny nose(for 3 days), and antibiotics.

I had to self medicate last night digging all the medication from wherever. Everything but fever medication, cos I seldom get high fever.

And I ran out of aspirin. My dad’s paracetamol looked extremely tempting, but I don’t want to tempt fate(I am allergic to it).

And I still couldn’t sleep.

But at least, I can talk now.

Bah.
